The weather BETWEEN...

So, were having a bit of a cold snap. Not cold enough to set the sugar in my grapes and get them ready for juicing but nearly. Sometimes I have to remind myself that I live in the desert state, because it is wet around here, very, very wet. So here is the challenge, look at the only the first picture and consider what you may be looking at...kind of like "where is Waldo?" except all you can see is Waldo.
So dust off your imagination and let's see what you can see. It may be the scales of a dragon's back that shimmers at dawn. Maybe, it's a micro village, check out the road way leading to the north. It's more than likely not a furry creature and after studying it a minute or two I'm considering that I've left you with too much information and to many details and you will discover it's true identity right away. It's all about perspective. If you only focus on the micro details than small things become BIG. Sometimes too big to handle. So here is the big reveal...wait for it... wait for it...

This is the evidence that we are stuck BETWEEN seasons. It's so wet you can imagine it's spring. But a maple leaf changing colors is a sure sign of fall. Hopefully, that doesn't make us anywhere near close to winter. I don't really mind winter, it's just that it's so, well you know cold. And I have to wear so many layers BETWEEN. What about you? What are you stuck BETWEEN?

I am stuck between despair and elation; frustration and peace; complete terror and boldness.

This weather has mirrored my own emotions over the past few weeks. For no apparent reason, I cloud over and start getting all misty and then a downpour will ensure which will carry on from anywhere between 5 minutes to over an hour. Then suddenly the clouds part and a ray of sunlight shines through warming my world again. This cycle has been repeated over and over for weeks.

What is wrong with me....? A change of seasons, perhaps? Hmmm....
